Today hubby and I were reading devotionals this morning, we read Matthew 26:10 in which the woman put the jar of alabastar all over Jesus. The line that jumped out at me was ..."when Jesus understood..."
Imagine that. Something happened to Jesus and everyone was talking about what it all meant on a normal earthly level. Then Jesus understood what was going on. Spiritually. The Holy Spirit had revealed to Him what was going on. The woman was preparing him for his funeral.
I can imagine Jesus's face as this sudden insight came into His spirit and mind.
May Holy Spirit give us insight into what is going on in our lives. And may he strengthen us to endure and to do what we have to do.
This will be a blog for Christians, for people who are part of a minority, for writers. I'm a poet, essayist, devotionalist, reviewer and writer of speculative fiction.Let God be true...and every man a liar.
